An even function can be reflected over the y-axis and still remain unchanged.
Example: y=x^2
On the other hand, an odd function can be reflected around the origin and also remains unchanged.
Example: y=x^3
A straightforward method to determine this is:
if f(x) is even, then f(-x)=f(x)
if f(x) is odd, then f(-x)=-f(x)
Hence, for an even function
substitute -x in for each and check for equivalence
make sure to fully expand the expressions
g(x)=(x-1)^2+1=x^2-2x+1+1=x^2-2x+2 is the original expression
g(x)=(x-1)^2+1
g(-x)=(-x-1)^2+1
g(-x)=(1)(x+1)^2+1
g(-x)=x^2+2x+1+1
g(-x)=x^2+2x+2
Not the same, as the original contains -2x
Therefore, it is not even
g(x)=2x^2+1
g(-x)=2(-x)^2+1
g(-x)=2x^2+1
It matches, hence it is even
g(x)=4x+2
g(-x)=4(-x)+2
g(-x)=-4x+2
Not equivalent, thus not even
g(x)=2x
g(-x)=2(-x)
g(-x)=-2x
Not equal, therefore not even
g(x)=2x²+1 is the confirmed even function.
The true value is 25.7 ml.
The calculated error is 15.6%.
Thus, the error amount equals 0.156 times 25.7, which calculates to 4.0092 ml.
The percentage error indicates that the student's measurement could either exceed or fall short of the true value by this error amount.
This leads to two potential readings:
one possibility is: 25.7 + 4.0092 = 29.7092 ml
the other possibility is: 25.7 - 4.0092 = 21.6908 ml
Answer:
a) 0.00019923%
b) 47.28%
Step-by-step explanation:
a) To determine the likelihood that all sockets in the sample are defective, we can use the following approach:
The first socket is among a group that has 5 defective out of 38, leading to a probability of 5/38.
The second socket is then taken from a group of 4 defective out of 37, following the selection of the first defective socket, resulting in a probability of 4/37.
Extending this logic, the chance of having all 5 defective sockets is computed as: (5/38)*(4/37)*(3/36)*(2/35)*(1/34) = 0.0000019923 = 0.00019923%.
b) Using similar reasoning as in part a, the first socket has a probability of 33/38 of not being defective as it's chosen from a set where 33 sockets are functionally sound. The next socket has a proportion of 32/37, and this continues onward.
The overall probability calculates to (33/38)*(32/37)*(31/36)*(30/35)*(29/34) = 0.4728 = 47.28%.
